where to begin
so much has been going on in the house since the mister brought home the kitchen cabinets!
he decided to rewire the kitchen outlets while he could rip up the walls and discovered some electrical issues and random wires. so there are a few less outlets including where i used to plug my laptop in.
he discovered the back of the house was completely termite damaged (not active but in the past) when he went to hang an upper kitchen cabinet. he found the stud but the screw wasn't catching anything. so he ripped up the siding and the back of the house is covered in plastic.
then we got a letter from our home owner's insurance reminding us that we had to "fix" the roof on our front porch. upon further inspection by the mister it was decided to replace rather than fix and i came home from work to this:
oh and i forgot to mention he took down the cypress trees in the front one day too.
so the permit process and the rain delayed stuff and here we are a few months later...kitchen 80% done..we need windows, spackle, paint, a pot rack, and a few other things..but we got the awesome counters which i'll write about later (i promise!!)
we have siding for the back and for the front that needs to go up
and yesterday the first inspection of the new porch roof went great and the mister is out there as we speak putting up roofing paper and doinfg the roof before it rains again friday!
ummm..i thought it never rained in socal but it totally does!! at least this year...
next up picking exterior house colors...and maybe we'll finish the kitchen someday..
